I finally got round to a more serious look at Love and Friends online dating offering. For the most part, I am very impressed. The technical look and feel of the site is fairly simple, a lot less flashy and 'finished' than Match or Dating Direct. But the quality of women on the site, and presumably men as well, is really something. They work hard to ensure that they have professional people. It may also be that their search engine does a better job of matching. Whatever the case, I see a higher percentage of women who look compatible to me -- a highly educated, high earning professional in London, than I do on Match or Dating Direct.
The biggest problem I see on Love and Friends is that there are a few bugs. For example, I got a message from someone today and used the link from the email to go to the login page. After typing in my username and password, I hit enter and it failed to log me in. I only got in when I clicked the login button. Also, when they show a person has more than one photo, often what I will see is several copies of the exact same shot. I had some problems with this when I was uploading my photos. I sorted it out, but it would be easy to miss and judging by how many profiles I have seen with this problem, it occurs a lot.
